Elysian Kaiser Kurbis Pumpkin Hefeweizen

Brewed in our small (3 bbl) Tangletown brewery. Brewed with Maris otter pale, Weyermann wheat, cara-Munich and cara-Vienne malts, with pumpkin in the mash, kettle and fermenter. Bittered with German Northern Brewer and finished with Czech Saaz. Unspiced but for the Weihenstephan Bavarian wheat beer yeast.
